Tuttomercato reports that Ravenna FC has acquired Vinicius Negro Di Stefano from Crotone. Ravenna FC announced the acquisition is a permanent transfer. Vinicius is a Brazilian midfielder who was born in 2002. He played for Crotone for three seasons, where he made 79 appearances and scored five goals. He was previously in the youth sector of São Paulo.

Brazilian-Italian midfielder Vinicius, 23, is expected to leave Crotone, partly due to the club downsizing its squad after a change in technical guidance. While multiple clubs are interested in him, Ravenna, managed by Andrea Mandorlini, has identified the player as a target and is considering adding him to their team for the upcoming season. Vinicius joined Crotone in September 2023 and his contract is valid until June 2028. During the 2025/2026 Serie C season, he made 65 appearances, scoring 4 goals and providing 5 assists. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €250k.
